NYU. Amazing but not the typical College experience. Instead of frat and quad parties we went to clubs in the meat packing district. Very gay.

Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Tx.. It's also a prison town and it feels cursed or something. I only went there to get a few credits and transfer into a better school. It was a terribly racist place but not in an overt way, they'd smile to your face when they were brimming with slow burn hatred. The fucking racists would wait to attack in the night by slashing tires and putting racist letters in the school newspaper and it got worse when the school got a Jewish dean. Fuck that town.

UCLA

I had fun because my part-time job was in food service for ASUCLA (Assoicated Students of ... ), and I was quickly drafted to work "training table" for the big three, men's athletic teams at the time (football, basketball, and track). .. That meant twice a day (breakfast and lunch) these jocks would show up at a private dining room set up for them to eat their food. Usually, the coaches would accompany them and they'd use the time to talk performance. Their food was all free to them; some of the guys were on special diets that we had to monitor (both to lose and gain weight). We'd wait on them like they were seated in a restaurant. Occasionally, we'd be asked if we could work dinner service since they sometimes had boosters (alumni) come in to meet and mix with the boys.

Beyond that, everything you may have ever heard about old glory holes at UCLA is probably true. I recently read that the infamous men's rooms in Royce Hall and the one in the basement of Haines Hall are still going strong. It was hard to ignore the one in Royce Hall, because I had so many classes in that building. Two of my English professors showed quite a bit of interest in me. I may have taken the bait, but neither of them were good-looking.

R2, that sounds like a blast to this provincial Midwesterner. I was too scared of crime to go to college in New York. This was in the Koch-Dinkins era of mid-day robberies and and the Central Park Jogger. Scary.

I ended up in Boston, instead, with a bunch of Massholes. One winter weekend walking back to campus from CVS, I heard a scream: "DYKE!"

Alas, it was a couple of townie Massholes in a pick-up truck.

I went to a lot of schools. The one that finally gave me a degree was the University of Washington.

Undergrad at McGill University in Montreal. It’s a large urban campus in the center of a fascinating, gay-affirming city. Other than the brutal winters, it was a great experience for me.

Hudson U., Class of '92--'04. Let me tell you, being a student here was more dangerous than being on the mean streets! Thank goodness I stayed in Briscoe Hall!

I went to Florida University at Cape Kennedy.
